Oct 24th- GreenEng101- Safety Review

Shop Safety Scavenger Hunt

Class will divide into 4-person teams.

Active Safety is the continuous identification of hazards and the management of risks involved in every lab and shop.

" The hazard is the shark in the swimming pool- the risk is swimming with it."
